After rebirth, I married the emperor's uncle and overthrew my ex-husband's kingdom
Chapter 455 You ask me, how do I know?
At this point, if he didn't know that he had been tricked by the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, he would be really stupid.
Fragments splashed at his feet. Zhao Zhong's face was not looking good, but he still carefully advised: "Master, there may be a chance for a turnaround. Why don't we think about the follow-up countermeasures?"
"I have already been crowned king. How can I have any room for maneuver in this matter?"
The third prince smashed things to vent his anger, then sat down on the ground in despair.
Zhao Zhong had never seen him in such a miserable state. Even though the entire general's family was executed for corruption, he still had fighting spirit in his heart.
"Why don't we go discuss this with the Queen?"
The Third Prince didn't even raise his drooping eyelids. He laughed at himself and said, "Now that it has come to this, what else can the Queen Mother do?"
She herself was despised by her father, so how could she have the ability to help him?
If it weren't for the fact that her father was old and frail and rarely entered the harem, she would have been too busy to take care of the fighting in the harem.
Zhao Zhong was silent for a long while. After a long while, he thought of something else, "Your Highness, now that the crown prince is gone, the other princes are also young. There may be a way."
Hearing this, the Third Prince finally looked up at him.
Zhao Zhong walked up to him, leaned over and whispered in his ear: "The emperor is still taking the elixir."
Pill? !
The Third Prince's breathing stagnated, and a glimmer of light suddenly appeared in his gray eyes.
Yes, his father is still taking poison pills as longevity pills, day by day...
"Since the Emperor has already bestowed the throne upon you, why don't you accept it happily? Anyway, those princes are still young, and with the Empress around, they can't cause any trouble."
Zhao Zhong's words revived the Third Prince's withered ambition. He stood up from the ground and said, "Have someone clean up the study. Don't let anyone know what happened tonight."
The news of the palace banquet spread quickly after dawn. At the Yongning Marquis' Mansion, Bai Yanlang and Bai Mulin learned that the prince had been deposed, and they were immediately on pins and needles.
"Dad, what should we do now?"
"You ask me, how do I know?"
Bai Yanlang sat in the chair with his head down and sighed.
He now regretted it extremely. If he had known that the crown prince was useless, he would have accepted the olive branch thrown by the third prince.
Although the third prince has been crowned as a king, completely cutting off his path to becoming an emperor, he is still a first-rank prince after all. It is better to be able to cling to someone else than to be helpless as he is now.
The father and son were both frowning. Li He walked in and said, "Master, the Marquis wants you to go to the front yard. He wants to discuss something with you."
"What's the matter?"
Bai Yanlang was in a bad mood. He cursed and got up to go to the front yard. Bai Mulin followed him.
Li He looked at the backs of the father and son and shook his head helplessly.
What could the Marquis want from them now? He simply wants to separate them out.
The crown prince has been deposed, and now they have no one to rely on. How could the marquis be willing to support them?
As he expected, the Marquis invited not only him, but also the old lady and Lu Chaorui and her son.
Seeing that everyone was present, Bai Qingyu got straight to the point, "I asked you to come here today to discuss the division of the family."
Mrs. Qiao's face suddenly darkened. "As long as our parents are alive, we won't divide the family. I'm not dead yet!"
"Qiao, you are just my father's second wife. I am the master of the Marquis' Mansion now. It is not your turn to decide whether to divide the family or not!"
Since it was no longer useful, Bai Qingyu was too lazy to pretend to be a loving mother and filial son. "You had someone tamper with the pills I took, causing me to be bedridden for all these years. I haven't settled the score with you yet. Today I'm just going to separate you all. If you don't agree, I'll ask Jingzhao Yin to investigate this matter thoroughly!"
"Brother, what nonsense are you talking about? When has my mother ever harmed you?!"
Bai Yanlang jumped up from his chair. He stared at Bai Qingyu in anger, "You are talking about splitting up the family now, isn't it because the crown prince has lost power and you can't get any benefit from me? You even slandered my mother for harming you!"
Not only was he shocked, Lu Chaorui was also horrified.
She had joined the Bai family for all these years, but she didn't even know about this.
Bai Qingyu ignored him and looked up at the old Qiao who was pursing her lips tightly, "Qiao, do you want me to kidnap Doctor Li and take him to Jingzhao Prefecture?"
"What Doctor Li..."
Before Bai Yanlang finished speaking, Old Mrs. Qiao interrupted him and said, "Divide it, as you say."
The crown prince has been deposed, and Prince Rong is now charged with treason. They have completely lost their support.
"mother!"
Bai Yanlang screamed and looked at her in disbelief.
If she agreed to split the family business, doesn't that mean everything my eldest brother said is true?
Everyone in the second and third rooms was stunned, except Bai Mulin who already knew the truth.
His mother told him this before she died, and asked him to come to Old Qiao if he had any problems in the future.
Before, there was no difficult matter to ask Old Qiao for help, but later, my sister won the favor of the prince, so there was no need to use Old Qiao.
"When a tree grows big, it branches out. When a son grows up, he branches out. I won't live for many more years. Do whatever you want. I can't control you anymore!"
After saying this, Mrs. Qiao allowed Nanny Huang to support her and went back to her own Songtao Garden.
"Second brother, you should move today."
Bai Qingyu's merciless words made Bai Yanlang furious, "Brother, no matter what, you and I are blood relatives, how can you be so heartless? You want us to move out now, where should we move to?"
"You have a house under your name. It's your own business where you move to."
“That one day isn’t enough time!”
Bai Qingyu sneered at him, "It's only been a day since you kicked Lu out of the house. She can move, but you can't?"
"you......"
Bai Yanlang recalled the day when he kicked Lu out of the house. He choked and was speechless for a moment.
Bai Qingyu stood up and said, "If you don't have enough people under your command, I'll ask the butler to transfer some people to you."
"Brother, do you really have to do this?"
Bai Yanlang looked hurt, but his own mother had caused him to suffer from chronic illness, so he had no right to cheat.
If he really acts recklessly, he will be the one who will be embarrassed, and even the younger ones in the family will be implicated.
"What else?" Bai Qingyu sneered, "Your mother hurt me so much, I have done my best by not sending her to jail. Do you still want me to support you in a nice way?"
"Brother, can we move in a few days?"
Bai Yanlang's eyes were red. "Today is the first day of the new year. We can't let others see the joke of our mansion."
"A joke? Ha! Our mansion has long been a joke in the eyes of others!"
Li sneered, "In the past, the first day of the new year was full of guests, but now? Look again, how many people are willing to come to my mansion?"
"It all started with you, the second branch. You married a lady of high status but didn't treat her well. Instead, you treated your concubine like a treasure. You have ended up like this now. It's all your own fault!"
